🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Round copper tag. What type?

[sibbley]

Found at an 1859-1958 one room schoolhouse site. The tag is the size of a Washington U.S. Quarter. I'm pretty sure it's made of copper. Any ideas?

Thanks for looking...

Nice find. Could be anything. Luggage is one option.

Key tag, locker key tag?
